Carrot chutney was what one day flashed my mind!!, but never tried as I thought it might give a sweet taste to the dish, Mr.R doesn't like anything which has a sweet flavour in his spicy dish!!, does it taste sweet, your chutney looks so gorgeous, it is calling me to try out, will give it a go with just one little carrot and how it is taken by my family !!

Not able to leave posts without commenting today.
We have this atleast once in a week in my mom's place.
